this is the story...well, its nothing too special, but i do like the specific phrasing one of the reblogs uses. "it was a deer in the way that a graveyard is a playground. you can treat it as such, I guess, but it won’t feel the same." not bad ! rootandrock.tumblr.com/post/1900921...

apparently what happened: a scary story from tumblr got conflated and jumbled in with carnivore deer art, and people on tik tok started making fake videos of "how to spot not-deer". how bizarre, lol

i have to say i like best when people do more with their deer monsters than just making them carnivorous. and i like it least when they ask the computer to make monster deers instead :P

from what i've seen, carnivore deer have basically evolved into....a new "cryptid" (seems to be entirely separate from the obnoxious semi-Native-culture-appropriation deer-themed monster, thankfully) ? and associated with various melodramatic-leaning aesthetics, which amuses me
